Where can I go on a road trip from Houston?
With your own wheels, adventuring around the surrounding areas is as easy as putting your foot on the accelerator. Houston is an obvious place to begin, but there's loads more to keep you on the move in the region. Pick up the keys to a home, toss your luggage in the trunk and take a peek at these other inspiring spots:

  • You'll feel the energy of a city bursting with life the minute you pull into Trapper Creek. Some 80 kilometres from Houston, it has a ton of awesome places to explore, like Denali State Park.
  • Another city that's a hit with travellers is Seward, around 177 kilometres away. Exit Glacier is just one of many reasons people keep coming back here.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Houston?
The minimum age is 21. But there are a handful of age-related requirements to keep in mind before reserving your Houston wheels. If you're a younger motorist, most home outlets will charge an additional daily fee and limit the sorts of vehicles you're able to rent. The exact surcharge, and which ages it applies to, varies between outlets. Take a moment to compare the requirements.
What do you need to rent a car in Houston?
Most of the time, all you'll need is a driver's license and a credit card in the same name when collecting the car. Proof of coverage may also be required if you decide to opt out of the company's insurance policy. Requirements are likely to differ between home companies, so it's wise to check while booking.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Houston?
You can rent a car for a month or longer in Houston, so don't hestitate to extend that holiday! Simply enter your trip dates into our long-term car rental deals page and find your ideal ride.
Where can I find a Houston car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Houston providers will rent to drivers under 25 years old, and others won't. Policies differ from supplier to supplier, so be prepared to do your homework. Also, find out if there are extra costs. Some businesses will apply a surcharge to young drivers between 21 and 24. Be sure to read through the terms and conditions to avoid any nasty surprises.
Can I drive in Houston with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license from the United States, then you may need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S, be aware that you'll also have to show your current driver's license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card you used to rent the vehicle must match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to confirm your home. Some additional requirements for renting a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or older in most states to be able to rent a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local regulations, and with the car rental company before you go to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, you typically can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, use car ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your car rental.
